90* off from reality
« on: June 11, 2009, 08:52:54 PM »
I discovered a great new Japanese show I really like a lot.  It is called Nodame Cantabile.  A very funny high slapstick romance set at a music school in Tokyo between a very fussy Felix Unger kind of guy who wants to be a conductor, and an Oscar Madison type girl who wants to be a kindergarten teacher. 

As part of her music, health and exercise regime for the kids, she was writing this.    Can you imagine what would happen in an american school if your kids did this?    BTW, for a six year old, it looks kind of fun.  Also, the costumes the kids are wearing are part of the plot of the series.

And if that isn't enough...   This is for all you Gershwin fans out there.   I think George would have loved this.

Anyway, from now on, I shall refer to all 0bama speeches as "Onare Taiso."  As in "in his Onare taiso to the Horst Wessell Glee club, 0bama said...."

“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

Want more proof?   You can skip past the first 90 seconds or so.    This is really good.

I think we dropped 1 nuke too many.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."
